Your code here

import re import pandas as pd

print(pd.version)

s = pd.Series(['a', 'aa', 'b']) regex = {'^a$': 1, '^b$': 2, '^aa$': 3} print(s.replace(regex, regex=True)) print(s.replace({re.compile(k): v for k,v in regex.items()}, regex=True))

Problem description

These two .replace calls are equivalent on pandas 1.0.5. They are different on 1.1.0 and master.
